I like the town of Blackstone because it is a small and quite town. There is not much to do here, so we have to go to the city to do anything such as going to the movies. However, we do have a small bowling alley. Long ago there was a small movie theater on base that closed down. If it wasn't for Fort Pickett, Blackstone would be nothing. Ft. Pickett is responsible for many of the jobs. I would like to see a KFC come to Blackstone.
Blackstone is small town with good restaurants and friendly people. Everyone knows everyone and it has a welcoming atmosphere.
I travel there quite often as part of my work and visiting my Grandmother. My Mom sent me and my sister to school there as she works there. She felt the school in Blackstone was better than the one where we live.
